About this property

Entire cottage in Berkshire Villiage

With close access to the Ashuwillticook rail trail and a short drive to convenient shopping and restaurants, this is a perfect location for your Berkshire getaway. Relax on the private back porch, or in the large bath tub. Cook meals in the full kitchen, or do some writing at the desk with views of the pond. Sleep in late in the king sized bed, and then enjoy what the Berkshires has to offer! 5 minute drive to Lakeview Orchards, 20-25 minutes from Lenox, Tanglewood, and Kripalu. 30 minutes to Mass MoCA and the peak of Mount Greylock (less to the start of the trails, if you want to hike it yourself!). 5 minute drive to Jiminy Peak, 45 to Berkshire East and Butternut ski resorts. 20 minutes to Notchview for cross country skiing.

This is a unique old house, and you will find nautical books and artifacts, as well as trinkets from around the world. Please note that there is no TV. The spiral staircase is one of my favorite features of the house, but it is narrow and steep, so please take care. If there will be more than two guests, and you require complete privacy from those staying on the couch downstairs, you might want to rethink, as the house is small and the master bedroom is a loft. The bedroom upstairs has low ceilings - but with a comfy king sized bed, there's no need to stand up for too long, anyhow! In addition to the full bathroom downstairs, there is a half bath on the second floor, so one does not have to navigate the small staircase after bed time. The second bed, a pull out couch downstairs, is queen sized and very comfortable.

Excellent Stay

This property is located near some great hiking, biking and swimming and is a great place to stay. If we had a question it was responded to in a very timely and professional manner. The owner made us feel more than welcome and went out of their way to make our stay exceptional. I would certainly stay here again!

Quaint House

We had a very enjoyable stay. The owner provided some basics such as coffee, tea and spices. The first level consists of the kitchen, living/dining room combo. There is a narrow spiral staircase to the bedroom which has access to a toilet and sink. We didn't stay up there as the pitched roof is too close to the bed and it was cold. The bathroom has a nice washer/dryer however the baseboard heater doesn't provide enough heat so it felt frigid. There is spa tub suitable for soaking but if you less agile you may have trouble getting into the tub. The living room couch opens to a double bed with linens in the storage part of the couch. There was good heat on the first level and the hot water heats up quickly. The house is situated close to Target and the Regal Berkshire movie theatre. It is 15-20 minutes to area attractions such as Edith Wharton's house, Ventford Mansion, Norman Rockwell Museum and Clark Art Institute, etc. We would stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Elise Anne Huebner

Host profile image
I am a mariner by profession, and am often sailing on the ocean. Therefore, my home is yours to enjoy while I am gone! I hope you appreciate the various nautical books and small trinkets from different parts of the world, and find this home as cozy as I do.

Why they chose this property

I love old homes for their quirks, and their stories. I grew up in the Berkshires and spent about 12 years away before I realized what a great place it was! When I found this house I knew it was perfect - a quick walk to the rail trail and next to a body of water. I love the spiral staircase, and the high ceilings in the kitchen and bathroom. The cozy loft space suits me well, and the views from the top of the hill are great! This house feels a little bit like a boat to me, with it's built-in storage, odd angles and winding stair case.

What makes this property unique

Being close to nature but a short drive to convenient shops and restaurants makes this place a great location. It is in the center of Berkshire county, which means you can get to multiple points of interest in less than 30 minutes by car. It is also a quick drive to both Pontoosuc and Onota lake for swimming and boating. If you have a kayak or canoe, bring it! You can launch it in the pond and paddle around - it's bigger than it seems.
